This is my latest beauty. It does not yet have an owner. I made it over the last month while making other custom orders. It is $200 and was cut from two layers of silver, welded together, and then filled with a black resin. Finally, a layer of clear resin was applied over that to give it a nice shine and an interesting optical effect. The rolo style silver chain has no clasp. I made it to be slipped on and off at will. I can add a clasp if the buyer wishes at no additional charge.

(Acid bath after welding)

Added resin and had to wait several days to dry.

Sanding off excess black resin.

Often I have to hand polish a piece. Literally. I make a special polish and rub it on the piece by hand to prevent scratches.

Applying the final coat of clear resin. Several more days to dry.

These are the basic steps involved. I can't count how many times I had to polish or soak in acid or touch up. The filing and sawing is barely illustrated as well.

Thank you so much for the Black Sun piece. It is gorgeous and perfect! You always do such exceptional work, that I'm happy to patronize your craft. Good luck in your new digs! And thanks for the extra long chain.

Thank you for the purchase and patience as I moved. I loved your piece so much I hated to let it go. I took photos that I'll have to post soon of it. That was my first and so far only silver dollar sized Black Sun.
